Viewing the Latest Poll: If you would like to view the latest Coaches Poll, you may do so by clicking on the Link after each conference name on the main scouting and standings screen. Clicking on the link will open a new window with the top 10 teams in it, their records, and their previous weeks standing. The previous weeks rank will be listed in parenthesis after the current week rank.

Casting a Vote: Each team has one and only one ballot for the top 10 per week. That is to say a team may make their own top 10 list of teams in the league. That list is combined with the other owners lists to determine the top 10, hence the name coaches poll. Teams are given a weighted average based on the position (rank) in each list. To cast your ballot, you may click on the "Vote" link on the main scouting and standings screen. Much like the viewing of the poll, the ballot opens in its own window with ten drop down lists. Those lists are populated with the team's with winning percentages equal to and over .500. You may select one team for each of the ten positions. It is important to note, you may not vote for a team more than once, and you may also not leave any of the positions blank. Doing so will cause the ballot not to save and not to record your vote. It is also good to note that the voting ballot window is independent from the main game window, so, you may view, scout and analyze teams without losing your votes (as you decide who to vote for).

Voting Results: Teams have all week to cast ballots and adjust votes depending on games, scores, or anything else. The votes are tallied on Thursday during the games and a new GNN-Galactic Free Press Coaches Poll is published.

End of Season List: The final poll will be published the Thursday before the playoffs start. All ballots after this point will be discarded.
